That repo is not actually VS Code. What you get when you download compiled VS Code releases includes proprietary, closed-source components. If you build “VS Code” from OSS components, you do not end up with VS Code.

microsoft/vscode is not the same as the VS Code you download from MS. The latter has a bunch of DRM stuff that many MS plugins require.

Thank you, downvoters, for freeing me from ever taking votes here seriously. Downvote a man for being right? About an on topic technical matter? In a technical forum?

Thanks ;)
